Looking at the make file, I see:

I think that what's happening is that I'm actually getting a hang in test-clean-load on abcl. Testing test-clean-load separately on ABCL exhibits the hang:
$ make test-clean-load l=abcl ./test/run-tests.sh -c abcl
<nothing>
as does:
./run-tests.sh -c abcl
<nothing>
I don't really know what test-clean-load is supposed to do, so I can't comment further.
test-clean-load is supposed to prove that no warnings of any sort are emitted while loading ASDF as source code, that are not otherwise emitted by the implementation when not loading ASDF. Such messages are not just an aesthetic disgrace, but an actual nuisance in some situations (rarer now that implementations come with a proper ASDF if you just (require "asdf")).
Somehow, one of these tests may be failing to exit properly.
